Excitement

So time is coming near to leave, and I am very excited about it. Excited about so many things that are coming: new culture, new friends, new language, new food, new time (lol), new weather, new adventures. There is something else though: the work God is going to do in my own life and others around me. I really feel like God is going to do so much in my life in this next season coming up. It won't be easy, but it is going to be so worth it. Taking me to a whole new level with God. Stripping me of myself, but enjoying myself and God. Breaking me down, but building me up in Christ. Blotting out sin, and replacing it with God. A whole new level of dependency on God. I am so excited. God is taking care of me. There are no worries, nothing to be anxious about. God (that same God is the God of the universe, creator) said go.....He isn't just going to send me out and not be there. 

At the same time, I still need your prayers:

That support does come in, all of the money I need. 

That I am walking in humility and that God is working in my life

That I am God's tool, and that He uses me day in and out

This is kinda of an early prayer request, but for God's direction. I felt like the right thing to do was to buy a one way ticket. To be flexible and ready for what God has to say. Also with the way things are looking at home (packing up my room because my mom is moving), just really emphasizes this is a new season in my life. 

I have lived out of a bag almost my whole life. Switching houses, for 9 years every three days, with one set of clothes between two houses and then the last 3 years switching every friday. Sounds kinda depressing? Nah. I can see how God has used that in my life because it is so easy for me to get up and go, to be ready, and to live out of a bag and be happy while doing it. Ready to be used by God at any time and any where. Does not seem like to many people are like that. 

I want to be God's tool. Ready and willing for wherever He wants to take me, wether to the other side of the planet or right down the street. 

This was kinda long. Good night!

Cool Story, New Prayer Request

A few weeks back at church, a lady had been attending every once in a while. Older lady, not worried about what people think, very straight-ford. She had continually been catching my attention, so I asked God what was up. I really felt like God was wanting me to go talk to this lady, but I had no idea why. So I walked up to her at the end of church and started a conversation. One of her very first sentences was along the lines of "God must of sent you to come talk to me." So after a while of talking and praying for each other we went our separate ways. This lady lives 42 miles from my church. My church is small, on a random small road that nobody knows how to pronounce right the first time, in a random elementary school. That lady came back yesterday. As I was cleaning she saw me and did the whole double glance thing and was very excited to see me. She said she had been praying for me a lot. We talked some more and told her about my plans. She told me that when I am ready to start raising support to give her a call because she wanted to support me financially, in which she gave me her card. 

cool story^

prayer request: My car broke down, and I am driving my brothers car, it will last the next month and a half. But I need wisdom on what to do with my car. Fix it? Sell it? Sit there? 

I bought my airplane ticket, leave september the 8th, have my visa, and currently have $2000 saved up. I need another $4500. I will hopefully be sending out my official support letter very soon. 

Hey Guys
